Allegedly, before the age of 5, children see and hear things from *the other side* all the time. It's not scary to them; it's calming. They lose this ability when they're able to reason and form sentences that explain the reasoning. This happens around the age of 5. Kinda sad to lose something so fabulous and yet not know you've lost it!

The other day Clark told me there was a man in my mom's bedroom, talking to him. He went on and on about it and the more questions I asked, the weirder it was. I was freaked the heck out until I realized it was her answering machine going off and that he'd never heard one before. Deep breath.
